第一篇:托业经验含推荐参考书
很早以前就想,如果自己能考过900,就来分享下备考经验,并不是为了炫耀成绩,而是觉得自己的备考过程最后达到了自己的目标,所以应该对以后要考试的同学会有些参考意义。而且针对这次是第一次全面机考,很多同学应该非常需要听听机考的经验和注意事项。
知道今天出成绩,远在峨眉山金顶的时候我就在想着赶快回来查成绩,结果成绩真的在我意料之外,竟然考了满分990.所以也顾不上爬山过后有多累了,赶紧趁着我还记得自己的备考过程,写下来跟大家分享,希望对筒子们有所帮助。
首先说说我自己的情况,我今年研二,大二考过六级后(六级570),大三上学期整过一段时间托福,没复习多久就放弃 结果托福裸考了一次。从此英语基本上属于荒废状态。研一想要考BEC中级,但是时间还早,所以决定先考个托业热热身。势必要把荒废的英语捡回来。利用了两个月的时间进行复习,参加了2011年8月28日的机考,在成都考试。
报考前也在犹豫,由于是第一次机考,网上完全搜不到机经或经验,而且针对机考听力不能提前读题的情况,大家也是表现的很慌乱,但是,思前想后觉得如果报九月份的机考势必要耽误我准备BEC的时间,所以还是决定报考这全球第一次统一的机考。
再来列举下我用的参考书: 新东方《托业考试官方指南》(北京语言大学出版社)2 新托业听力详解及实战试题(人民大学出版社)新托业阅读详解及实战试题Part 7,8(人民大学出版社)4 新托业superb全真模拟题(人民大学出版社)5新托业superb2全真模拟题(人民大学出版社)6 新托业题库本领书(机械工业出版社)7 新托业考试官方指南标准试卷(外研社)
接下来是备考过程了:
词汇
由于前面也说到,我大二过后英语基本荒废,所以想全部捡回,最开始首先是要背单词,我花一个月的时间把英语六级的词汇背完。注意,不是说这一个月全都用来背单词,而且托业复习的过程中同步背单词。有的同学可能觉得准备托业只要背托业词汇就好了,但是我觉得六级词汇都算是基本词汇吧。只有基本词汇都会,才能更好得听和读吧。当然,也要背托业词汇,其实都背过来发现很多六级词汇都把托业词汇囊括了。这就让我背托业词汇简单了很多。托业词汇大家网上很多整理的版本,下一个整理的比较完整的在复习过程中背下就好,不用刻意花很长时间背诵。
听力
大家听到机考之所以会慌张,绝大多数人都是因为听力吧,因为part3、4不能提前读题了。这仿佛使得听力的难度一下增加了很多,让大家觉得没底。针对这种情况,我来给大家说说我准备听力的过程吧。
首先,我很早就关注托业官网,知道8.28的考试改成机考了,所以,考试之前练习听力的时候,都是没有提前看题,严格按照机考的标准练习的。
在这建议准备时间很充裕的同学去猛听《托业全真题库》part1~4 那本书后面所附的19天的高频句子就按照书上写的方法听,坚持完19天,你会发现自己的听力会有个质的飞跃。因为这19天高频句子几乎囊括了所有的托业听力场景,基本上每听一段听力,听力场景我们定位准了的话,即使听不完全明白,答案猜也能猜对一大半。所以想考高分的同学赶紧去下来听。这也是在我备考过程中看到坛子里的高手的建议才去听得。听力果然提高很多。
Part1和2,都是比较简单的,听了这个19天地高频句子基本上不会错很多了。想拿高分的同学这部分要保证基本上全对才可以。
针对part3、4,大家应该训练自己在题目一开始读到question**-那句话的时候把题目扫完,这句话基本上是5秒钟,如果题目不是很长基本上可以扫完,重点看有没有人名,地名和疑问词是神马,尤其是有人名的时候,对话一开始就要把这些人名对号入座,往后才能听的明白。如果题目过长,扫不完所有题目时就不要在听力开始后,继续看题了。毕竟自己听明白才是做题的根本,前两句话要认真听,把你带入那个场景了,听起来也就容易了。如果你能在边听的时候边看题,那更好了。不过我就是试着边听边看看题的时候常常漏听些东西。
再就是要多听多练习,由于我比较忙,每天只有晚上有时间,再就是周末有时间。所以我坚持最多每隔一天做一套题,让自己的耳朵每天都能接触这些题材的听力。只要坚持多练,肯定能进步。我刚开始做第一套模拟题的时候也就是新东方的官方指南(参考书目1)的时候听力错了接近30个,就觉得听力好难,但其实只要你不停练习,每次听完要总结自己错在哪里,是对这个题材不熟悉,还是看题的时候听溜掉了,还是哪些词汇是你根本没听懂的没接触过的,总结经验继续练习,就这样不断重复这种过程,听力肯定能够提高。在考试前,我做的最难的套题,听力错也不会超过15个。
再就是机考的时候,我们不能回头改题目,所以练习的话,千万不能自己发现错了又去改答案,这绝对是自欺欺人的做法。要锻炼自己反应速度,要一次选中,不能回头呵呵~~
阅读
由于我本人的阅读从上高中的时候就比较好,所以就没怎么准备,买的二手的阅读详解(参考书3)基本上没怎么看,其实做过一两次模拟的同学应该都发现了,我们大多数时候是part5、6错的比较多,也就是说我们都是语法和词汇部分错的比较多,针对这种情况,还是需要看下语法书,针对虚拟语气,从句等基本语法和基本搭配等还是要好好学习下。如果有拿不准的题目,可以先选一个,做个标记回头再改(机考的时候,阅读部分有mark功能,所以翻起来还是比较方便)但是这得是你做完所有阅读的题目都还有富余时间的基础上的,我做纸质的模拟题基本上都会提前半个小时做完。但是做电子版的时候会余下二十分钟的样子。电脑做题确实要慢那么一点点。
针对part7和8,只要记住一句话,所有的题目都一定会在原文中找到答案,就可以了。真题考试的part7、8部分比人大的两本模拟上难度稍微大些,有些题目不是直来直去还是需要思考,所以一定不能大意。
模拟套题
我所列出的后四本都是模拟套题。人大的两本书,其中有几套及其简单,但有几套题比较难。建议大家每次练习还是做完整的一套,不要阅读和听力分开练习,这样的话可以模拟考试场景,毕竟考试时候需要你两个小时都全神贯注的做题,尤其是听力,耐下心来连续听45分钟确实也是很考验毅力的。这坚持的毅力当然得在平时训练中慢慢积累。所以每次做题一定做全套。
再来就是,做完一套题绝对不能对完答案算完分数就算了,一定要看自己错在哪了,为什么错,听力部分我已经详细说过了。针对听不懂的地方要反复听,仔细听直到自己听懂,阅读同样,part5和6改错的时候一定要明白自己错在语法不会还是单词不认识,还是短语搭配不熟悉,然后针对问题各个击破。针对自己的薄弱环节加强练习。针对最后的阅读理解,如果错了一定要找到错的题目的正确答案出现在文章的哪个部分,前面已经说过,托业的part7 8的所有题目答案在文章中一定都能找到,之所以会错肯定是你没有找对地方或者是根本没有找到。
针对时间我想说,阅读最好能够提前做完,这样才有时间可以返回查找自己不确定的题目,尤其PART5 6部分有时候你第一次做的时候完全不会,等你再回头的时候发现貌似又不是那么难,我经常最后关头在part5 6 部分改对几道题。
关于机考
在这里就说下了,既然是机考,大家就尽量不去买书了吧所有的模拟题大家网上基本上都有电子版(除了我没下到标准试卷的听力),就下下来直接在电脑上做电子版又省钱又能模拟机考,一举两得~~
再说说考场。由于以前参加过托福机考所以去的时候没有特别慌张。机考的入场时间统一,开始的时间统一,但是由于你阅读说明和试音的时间不同,所以真正开始答题的时间会有所不同,有些同学会很心急的开始答题,但是我建议时间适中就好,比如你刚开始答题的时候旁边的同学已开始看图,你就可以瞄一下大概是什么图,心里有个准备不是。这有些投机取巧哈,还是不建议大家在考场作弊,只是小小提一下例子,个人觉得稍微晚点比急急忙忙开始好一些,也听一些同学考完下来抱怨自己开始的太早,都开始听题了,旁边同学或者不会操作或者有问题在那跟老师叽叽喳喳影响他听题的效果。
考试不准代笔和草稿纸,所以有习惯在阅读的时候在试卷上画画什么的同学,可能得想办法把这个习惯给改改了。听听力的时候就把鼠标放在选项上,听到了立刻就选,在它没自动跳转的时候你还是有机会改的,但是它一旦跳到另一道题的话那就彻底没机会了。
个人感觉机考的听力,没有口音的干扰,发音清楚,比人大模拟题简单,part3、4题目长度基本上很短,也就是说那5秒时间内基本上都可以把三个题目都扫一遍。所以大家不用害怕,平常心,平常心~~
关于考场,我在成都考试,以前笔试,都在四川大学考场,可能现在是因为都改成机考,川大考场就不够分了,我就被无辜的分到成都大学考试,早都计划着在自己学校考试多安逸,结果准考证出来我就傻眼了。成都大学好远啊,我还提前一天去在那住了一夜,还好这都没影响我第二天考试。个人经验就总结这么多,能想到的基本上就这些了。如果大家有什么还不清楚想了解的问题,就回帖吧我会尽量回复哈,希望这些经验能给以后参加机考的同学一些帮助~~祝大家好运~~
第二篇:托业经验小谈
托业经验小谈
辛苦准备了好几个月的托业终于尘埃落定(其实只看了一个星期),成绩910。比较满意这个分数,有一定的运气成分,但很多是平时的积累,还有就是对考试的了解和准备。
下面说一说我准备托业过程中的一些小经验吧,希望对要考的同学能有一定的启发作用。
首先介绍一下个人的背景:英语成绩一直比较好,高考英语130多,考研英语70(2010年),四级460,六级510。总的来说算基础比较好的平时喜欢看美剧,《老友记》看了三遍以上,其它美剧若干(加起来大概有2000集的样子吧)。
觉得看美剧对我的英语有很大的帮助,因为我基本上没有专门复习过什么英语,基本上都是看美剧,看的时候尽量不看字幕(我的老友记是可以调成无字幕的,嘿嘿)
说这些不是为了炫耀,其实也没什么值得炫耀的,目的是为后面的介绍打个基础,让大家根据自己的情况调整复习的时间和强度。现在正式开始介绍关于托业的内容
一般我们考托业是考听读测试,这个也是大部分企业在招聘的时候要求提供的那一个托业成绩(如果需要托业成绩的话)。托业的听读测试基本上是每个月都可以报名的,而写作和口语一年只有两次,而且重庆不能考。讲到报名的事,大家在报名之前最好关注一下有没有托业校园计划这个东东。我就是用这个东东报的,打完折后只要了300多块,原价600多。今年的校园计划已经结束了,明年大家可以继续关注(下半年可能也有)。P.S.关于托业和BEC 这两个我都考了,BEC我考的是高级,复习的时候觉得太简单了,就没怎么复习,考的时候也觉得特别轻松,觉得肯定过了,结果58分悲剧了。所以得到一个教训:有的时候可能只是你自己觉得简单而已,事实上你怎么错的你都不知道。
言归正传,BEC和托业对比的话,我觉得托业的应用范围要广一点。因为我申请几个外企的时候发现英语里面只有:tofel,GRE,GMAT,雅思和托业。也许是因为是美国的公司的原因,BEC没有被列在里面。另外托业的确比BEC要简单一点,而且不存在过与不过的问题,考了就有分
另外,如果有校园计划的话,托业的报名费比BEC便宜(这里是指高级)托业听讲测试分为两大部分:听力和阅读(这是废话。。)听力有4 parts,阅读3 parts。下面依次介绍,part 1 看图。
这一部分就是让你听三个描述,看哪个描述和卷子上面的那个图最像,共10题。描述都很短,一句话的样子。主要容易错的地方就是近音词,其它的就没什么了,是最简单的一部分 part 2 情景对话
就是像我们刚学英语的时候那样,给你上句让你选下句。差别在于,这里的问题和选项都是用听的。这一部分有两个难点,第一也是最恼火的就是这一部分有30个题,题量大,很难从头到尾都保持集中。但是如果一不集中,很有可能就漏听了一个。所以这里提出关键点一:考前三天一定要完整的做完三套左右的卷子,完整的意思就是不要停,不要休息。锻炼自己集中注意力的能力。第二个难点就是这一部分的语速还算有点快,虽然句子不是很长,但也有可能会听不清楚。而且三个选项经常有两个非常的像,用词、结构都差不多,就有那么一小点的差别。这里提出关键点二:part 2要注意听问题,特别是问题的形式。很多时候你只要听清楚了是what,why还是where就可以选了。part 3 听读理解
这就跟我们一般做的听力差不多了。听一段对话,回答几个问题。问题不一定是按说话的顺序出的。也没什么技巧,尽量听清楚吧,平时多锻炼自己的听力。这一部分的题量也很大,所以,再次强调一下:体力很重要!!part 4 听读理解
跟part 3一样,差别在于这一部分只有一个人说,part 3是两个人的对话。part 5 选词填空
这个跟我们初中的时候做的那种一样,给你一个句子,里面挖掉了一个词,下面给四个选项。有的时候是一个词的几种不同时态或者不同语态,有的时候是几个近义词。基本上很简单,少数难的错了也不要紧。part 6 完型填空
可以用上面一样的方法做,不用去看全文,看有空的那个句子就够了 part 7 阅读理解
这一部分大家都熟。我就说下和我们平时做的有什么不同的。阅读理解分为single passage和double passage。其实也没多大差别,只是double passage会有一道题是和两篇文章有关的。基本上可以用找关键词的方法去做,一般问题不大,不像考研英语那样要绕很多的弯,基本上你找到那个句子,答案就出来了。一般文章不会太长,但是依旧是那个问题——题量大。所以这里提出关键点三:做题要快,不光是因为题量大,而且涂卡的时间要很长。基本上给你答案让你涂你也要近20分钟的样子涂完。
以上就是托业考试的概况了,另外,托业考试是不能在卷子上做记号的,但是你可以用铅笔做了记号然后用橡皮擦了,这就需要你更多的时间(大约需要7分钟来擦所有的题目标记)。
最后说下我用的资料:人大版的那两本,高丽棒子编的—— 一本真题,一本讲解。讲解可以不要,真题直接做就好了,做了自己总结。
祝要考托业的同学都能取得好成绩!

第三篇:托业考试
托业考试心得(930分;人大教材;6级500分水平,20天复习)
首先说下,写这个东西只有一个目的,就是回馈下社会,因为当初考的时候看了很多文章,不管怎样都获得了一些有用的信息和启发。分数也不牛逼,准备时间也不短,但希望可以对于像我一样底子薄弱的人可以有些帮助。
还有一点要说明,这篇文章里说的大部分内容都是针对应试的,这样去学习,主要目的就是为了考试,并不能从根本上帮助你增长英语水品。所以有时间的同学还是建议你们每天花点时间,日积月累的,真真提高英语水品。
好了,言归正传。我用的教材是人大的阅读,听力,6套模拟题。
首先说下听力吧,我第一次做托业听力的时候大概错了30个,有点郁闷,但并没在意,因为已经半年完全没看英语了,所以这个结果也算情理之中,因为本身底子就不好。
我当时是这样听的,早上按考试时间听一篇,然后对答案,下午的时候精听,把每个单词,每个句子都听懂,然后过2到3天,找一个晚上的时间脱离题目,再把听力原文听一次。每套题都是这样循环。
下面说下听力过程中要重点注意的问题: 1.
不管你开始的时候一篇文章做完之后错多少个,你一定要有信心,因为经过将近一个月的时间,你的听力水平肯定是可以提高的,所以一定要有信心。并且经过我参加考试后的经验发现,真题的听力并不难,也可以说很简单。
2.关于精听过程中的问题,有些地方听不懂,我不会反复听很多次,基本上我最多听5次,如果还是听不懂,我会放弃听懂这个单词,而是把这个没听懂的单词或词组的发音记下来,这点应该不难吧,大家的听力都没问题,肯定能听见,能模仿。为什么要这么做呢?因为后来我发现托业考试是一个针对性很强的考试,他不会像cet6那样,什么样的内容都涉及到,大部分都是一些基本的商务上的,公司里的用语,所以重复出现的单词或词组的概率很大。针对这些没听懂的地方,你把发音记下来,就相当于在你脑子里留了一个印象,留下了一个痕迹,但下次再出现这个词的时候,就可以条件反射的得到汉语意思。如果你没这么做,那么可能遇到这样情形,你在考试的时候听到这个词了,你思考了几秒钟想起来了这个词的意思,但这个时候听力还在照常进行,你之后的几秒钟的听力内容缺被忽略了,严重影响答题。所以平时在练习的时候,一定要注意积累这样的盲点,前面说到的晚上复习听力的阶段,也是为了重温盲点,扫除盲点。
3.Part 1和Part 3比较简单(个人认为,练习到后来的感觉),所以讲下针对part 2 和part 4的经验。
其中,p2的经验主要是从人大教材上学来的,感觉还可以,虽然有些东西肯定用不到,但说了总比没说强,所以可以去看下人大教材里的讲解。说下考试经验,我在考试中,第一道题没听懂,轻敌了,所以严重影响了后面几部分的考试,所以大家可以从中吸取经验教训:从第一道题开始就鼓足精神,认真去听;如果有听不懂的,千万要放弃,不能为了一棵树放弃一片森林,千万要放弃,在练习的时候可以练习放弃--。
P4的话书上说什么不用选原文出现的答案,要选同意变换的,其实我觉得不然,其实到后来,有些p4的文章,我也是听不懂,但基本都能选对,我总结了下,为什么会有这个效果,第一个原因就是在听原文的时候,一定要注意从整体把握,大概明白文章在说什么,还一定要注意说话人的语气,有的时候一些题目完全可以从说话人的语气中选出正确答案;第二就是可以采用“2点确定一条直线的”的方法。具体是这样的,在做文章之前,争取先看一下题目,找到题干跟选项的关键词,在听原文的过程中,注意听提干的关键词,在这个词的前后,如果出现了选项里的关键词,那正确答案基本就是这个选项了,个人觉得这个办法很好用,特别是在不能完全听懂文章的时候,大家可以尝试着去感受一下。(以上这些方法同样适用于p3,至于p1的方法,人大教材里已经说的很具体了,大家自己体会吧)
4.还有一点也说下吧,就是一定要提前看听力原文,我是按照人大教材介绍的顺序去看,感觉还可以。有些地方可以利用的,比如发下卷子之后,虽然卷子是封的,但你可以从底下掀起来看到最下面的题,也会帮你省时间,老师是不会管的,只要你别直接撕开。还有就是,做每套题的时候,要严格按照考试的时间来做,每次都认真对待,集中注意力快速扫题干跟选项,平时注意练习,这个能力也是可以提高的,比如只看题干的第一个疑问词,大写的词,跟时间等,选项中前半部分重复的地方,就掠过,不要读,记住不要读,因为之前是在用眼睛扫,而不是读,读的话浪费时间,用眼睛跟脑子扫,完全可以达到预期效果。(这些练习题的听力题干跟选项普遍偏长,所以大家在练习的时候如果读不完也不要紧,只要你用心去练了,可以集中的读,考试的时候一定可以读完)
5.听力差的人考前前20天建议每天都听2套题左右,这样可以让耳朵熟悉,很管用。
下面说下阅读部分:
每天上午对完听力答案之后,按考试时间做一套阅读,上午有时间的话可以对对答案,如果没时间就等下午精听听力后,认真分析错题。
1.我看过几篇人大语法跟词汇的书,但到真正考试的时候发现part5 6 很简单,不像练习里的那么难,所以大家可以考虑不用看那个书,因为太难了,没用,反倒浪费时间。不过你可以看下那本书之前的讲解,跟最后的一部分,叫什么“20天突破什么的”难度还可以,如果你底子不错,完全可以不看那本书,只需要把模拟题的p5 6弄明白就行。这两部分要拿满分很难,但想丢太多分也同样很难。
2.关于p7,真正的考试也很简单,但模拟题里的文章有点难了,而且有些分析的跟放屁一样,完全没作用,有的分析让你莫不着头脑,所以在做阅读那本书的时候,大家不用太较真,可以把那本书当做一个练习时间的书,有些问题错了,看了讲解之后还不懂的话,就可以不用管他了。但做模拟题的那6套的时候,希望你可以弄懂每一道错题,要知道为什么错了,怎么错的,正确答案跟错误答案之间有什么区别,正确答案是怎么被隐藏的等等。久而久之,就能有很大的提升。
3.在练习阅读的过程中,有时间的话可以把一些生词记下来,每天复习一下前面几天的单词,循环下去。个人觉得这个考试不用单独去花时间背单词,只需要把做过的题中的生词有选择的记下来就可以了。
4.我在练习的时候,几乎每次都有一些题明明会,但就是选错了,分析后发现,基本这样的题多是出现在我没把整篇文章看完就选择的情况下,所以针对这个问题,我以后不管文章长短,简单或是难,我都把文章看完,这样做可以让你至少少错2到3个题目。特别是最后的double reading 一定要看完文章,做题速度还可以的话,一定要看完每篇文章。
5.从练习开始,每次都要严格控制时间,留出5-10分钟涂卡,特别是在冬天,没暖气的考场里涂卡是挺浪费时间的,不过大家也别太担心,真正考试比模拟题简单,考试的时候我提前20多分钟就答完了。所以大家一定要有信心。
Ok,说了那么多,可能有点乱,因为是第一次写这样的东西,加上本来自身的文学修养就不够,所以还请大家见谅。
再强调几点,模拟题比真题难,可以说难的多,所以你们一定要有信息;每次练习都要做到3点:控制时间;全神贯注;认真总结。TOEIC Tips
1.Set a goal
So, you've decided to take the TOEIC test.Congratulations!The first thing you should do is set a goal.If you are taking the test in order to apply for a job, find out what proficiency level is required.Most entry level positions require a minimum score of 600.Management positions may require a higher score, such as 800.Choose a goal that is achievable.If you aim too high, you will be disappointed.Remember, you can take the test as often as you want if you don't mind paying the fee.2.Understand the test
Before you start studying for the test, make sure you understand the format of each section.You will be tested on your listening and reading comprehension skills.By doing model or practice tests, you will become very familiar with the TOEIC.The test should become “second nature” to you before you attempt the real thing.3.Make a study plan
Procrastination is one of the key reasons students fail the TOEIC test.You may book your TOEIC test months in advance.However, the day you decide to take the TOEIC test should be the day you start to study.You will have to decide whether or not you are going to teach yourself the TOEIC with reliable resources or whether you are going to take a TOEIC preparation class.In order to get the best results, you should do both.If you cannot afford to take a TOEIC class, make sure to choose a TOEIC textbook that has explanatory answers.You will also want to have a teacher or tutor that you can go to from time to time with questions.If you choose a TOEIC class, make sure that you trust your teacher and feel comfortable in his or her class.Take a class with a friend and make a commitment to study together in and outside of class.Studying at the same time every day is a great way to improve your score.Write down your study plan and sign it!4.Divide study time appropriately
The TOEIC is divided into seven sections.Each section is worth a certain amount of points.Don't spend too much time studying one section.Many students make the mistake of studying the section that they enjoy the most.This is the section you should spend the least amount of time on.You might want to divide your study week by focusing on a certain section each day.Remember, if Sunday is your day to practice Part VII(40 questions on the test), you might have to study twice as long as you would on Monday when you focus on Part I(20 questions on the test).5.Build a strong vocabulary
Another reason students fail the TOEIC test is that they have a very limited vocabulary.The day you decide to take the TOEIC test you should make yourself a blank dictionary.Use a notebook(an address book works great because it is divided into letters)and keep track of all of the new words you learn along the way.It is not useful to study vocabulary lists.You will only remember words that you have seen in context.For each entry, write the word and use it in a sentence.At the end of each week you should write a short letter or composition using as many of the words as you can.This might also be the time to stop using your translation dictionary.Electric dictionaries make things too simple!You will 6.7.8.9.not remember the word if it doesn't take any effort to understand it.Keep in mind that the TOEIC test has a business theme.You should study vocabulary from topics such as travel, banking, health, restaurants, offices, etc.You will also want to learn everyday idiomatic expressions.Isolate your weak points
After you have been studying the TOEIC for a while, you will find out which parts give you the most trouble.You might want to change how you divide your time.There are certain grammar points that many students have trouble with.If you are taking a TOEIC class, ask your teacher to bring in extra homework help on problems like these.If you are studying by yourself, find a good reference book in the library and look up your question.There may also be help on the Internet.For example, type “gerunds” into a search engine and you will probably find a useful exercise.Eliminate distractors
In every TOEIC question, there are at least two distractors(wrong answers that the test writer uses to trick you).It is much easier to choose the correct answer when you have only two to choose from.(The third choice is often impossible and easy to spot.)There are many types of distractors such as, similar sounds, homonyms, repeated words, etc.As you study, make yourself a list of distractors.When you come across them you will be able to eliminate them more easily.Trust your instincts
Sometimes an answer will jump out at you as either correct or incorrect.If you have been studying hard, chances are that your brain is telling you which choice to pick.Don't change your answers after following your instinct.If you do decide to change an answer, make sure that you erase very carefully.A machine will be marking your test.Be sure to use a pencil and fill in your circle choice completely.Bring extra pencils, erasers, and a pencil sharpener!Don't try to translate
Translating vocabulary and sentences wastes a lot of time.It is very rare that students have extra time during the TOEIC test.If you don't know a word, look at the context of the sentence and the words around it.You will not be allowed to use a dictionary when you take the test.10.Guess as a last resort
On test day, if you don't know the answer, and you have eliminated all of the distractors you can, don't leave the space blank.There is a good chance you will not have time to go back to this question.You still have a 25% chance of getting the answer right if you guess.If you are sure that one or two of the answers are incorrect, your guess is even more likely to be correct!11.Be aware of time management
When you are doing practice tests, you should always be aware of the time.Never allow yourself an open ended study session.You will have to learn to work efficiently.On test day, you should be especially careful in the Reading section.You will have 75 minutes to complete Parts V, VI and VII.Many students spend too long on section V or VI because they find these the most difficult.Don't spend more than 30 minutes on the first two parts.Part VII will take you at least 40 minutes, and it is worth a lot of points, especially if you find it an easier section.12.Listen quickly
When you are studying for the TOEIC test, do not get in the habit of rewinding the tape.On test day you won't have any control over the speed of the listening section.You will not even have time to think for very long between questions.Make sure that you do not get behind during the real test.If you do not know the answer, take your best guess.Then continue to follow along.Don't look back at questions when you are waiting for another question to start.13.Practise reading aloud
Reading out loud will help your listening and reading comprehension skills.In order to comprehend English more quickly, it is important that you understand the rhythm of the language.Read from textbooks, pamphlets, newspapers, and even children's novels.You might want to tape yourself and listen to how you sound.14.Use mass media
One of the best ways to prepare for the TOEIC test is to study real English.Watch television, listen to radio reports, and read newspapers and magazines.Pay special attention to ads, letters, weather and traffic reports, coupons, and special announcements.Do this with a friend, and write out questions for each other to answer.This is a great way to practice your wh-questions.It is also a great way to learn common idiomatic expressions.15.Use free web sites
There are many web sites that offer free model tests and samples.Type TOEIC into your search engine and start practising!Surfing the web is a great way to practise your reading and listening.If you are interested in a certain topic, such as snowboarding, type that into a search engine.You might want to reserve an hour a day for Internet studying.Just make sure to study English and don't get caught wasting hours playing games!
16.Teach a native English speaker your language
If you can't afford a tutor, you might know a native English speaker who would be interested in learning your first language.Tell him you will teach him for free for one hour a week!You will have to use English to teach him, and you will learn many new English words and expressions at each session.Forcing yourself to teach someone a language will help you to understand English grammatical rules as well.Do anything you can to speak with native English speakers.17.Keep an English journal
Keeping a journal doesn't have to be an account of your daily activities.You can write anything in a journal, such as how your studying is coming along, what your new favourite word is and why, or which teacher you admire.If you are studying TOEIC with a friend, make a list of writing topics for each other.You might decide to write a paragraph three times a week.Get your friend to try to find your mistakes.Finding your partner's writing errors is great practice for Part V and VI.18.Ask questions
Never hesitate to ask lots of questions.In a TOEIC class, all of the students will benefit from your question.If you don't understand something, such as conditionals, you may lose ten points on a TOEIC exam.A teacher is not always available, but students are everywhere!Sometimes other students can help you with a grammar problem even better than a teacher.19.Manage your stress
If you are feeling stressed about taking the TOEIC you may be studying too hard or expecting too much of yourself.Like everything else in life, balance is the key.Remind yourself that you will try to do your best.Before the test, take deep breaths and remember that you can always improve your score in a few months time.In between the listening and reading section, take a few deep breaths again to get focused.20.Don't cram
You should never cram(study extremely hard in a short period of time)the night or even week before the TOEIC test.There is so much to learn when you study the TOEIC.The last week should be for reviewing and practising rather than learning new things.Make sure to get plenty of sleep the night before the test.On the day of the test, have a good meal and relax for a few hours before going to the testing centre.Plan to reward yourself when the test is over!
